Pool News

/by

We have recently completed constructing an entertainment deck on the poolside of the Rear Lounge in the Clubhouse. Very soon we will be removing one section of glass windows and installing a door providing easy access to Calhoun’s bar.

If you have not visited the pool this season you are in for a treat. Many cosmetic improvements have been made making it truly the best-looking pool in Greenwood County!

Pool Security has been upgraded this year with the addition of secured gate access controls. Both access gates are secured and can only be accessed with an authorized key fob. This added security will help decrease unauthorized use of the pool by non-members. It also allows us to deactivate a person’s key fob in case they have had their amenity use revoked.

This new electronic system has been very well received with many members actually telling us they are grateful we moved to this type of entrance/exit. Bear with us as we are working on redoing the Women’s bathroom due to a leak in the wall. We should have this dried out and construction finished soon.

The opening of the Concession Stand this year has been a great asset to the pool – the kids LOVE the ice cream, popsicles and snacks while the adults are very pleased with the option of soda, beer, frozen drinks and seltzers and hard ciders.

We would ask the adults to please help us with the following rules with your children:

  • No Frisbees in the pool
  • No Tennis balls (or other hard balls) these don’t feel good if you lose control and someone gets smacked with it.
  • No playing or hanging on the pool rope that divides the deep end.
  • No pets of any kind allowed at the pool.
  • NO GLASS of any type – a broken glass would cause the pool to have to be closed, drained and refilled and everyone would be unhappy with that down time.

NOTE: Please remember the pool closes at 9pm and it is very important we don’t have swimmers after that time as we treat the pool with chemicals that you don’t need to be swimming in until the next day.
